FALER UM
A Novel and Delicious West Indies
Appetizer
Falernum is a very delightful concoc
tion which the West Indian mindful of
his health takes in sips and swallows I
at least once a day and that about an
hour before his dinner An appetizer I I
he calls it
I The beverage is quite as pleasant to the
palate as its name would suggest and it
lis j very easily made there Is an obstacle
to its perfect success which just here oc
curs to me that the West Indies is the
I place for pure rum and that in America
it is extremely difficult to get the genuine
article A small flask labeled Jamaica
I Rum and for which a goodly price was
paid formed part of the furnishings of
my traveling bag when I voyaged not so
very long ago to the faroff islands of
the Carribean sea The contents of the
flask I am sorry to say when tested
were found wanting tested by the way
I i with a hollow glass globe not bigger than
i a pa However this is not falernum
rae of sour two of sweet three of
stron and four of weak such is the
recipe as given by the West Indian
housewife V
Explained enlarged and annotated it
resolves itself thus One pint of sour
that is lime Juice or lemon juice two
pints of sweet that Is of sugar three
pints of strong that Is rum the best
you can get four pints of weak that Is
water
Flavor the concoction with bitter al
monds Let it stand in a cask for a week
or so then pour off in bottles
When comes the occasion for trying its
merits put in a small glass cracked ice
falernum water and a teaspoonful of
wormwood which haS been previously
infused and put In alcohol
For wormwood good bitters may be sub
stituted The falernum is eveh taken
without the addition of water or wormwood
wood but only a much as a liquer glass I
will hold Rum when i is tIass
strengthgiving and the bitters naturally I
add to Us virtues as an appetizer
What is known throughout the islands i
a the West Indian cocktail is a min i
gling of lime juice sugar rum water
and bitters In a hot climate bitter
is almost a necessity If not daily at
least occasionally and have you taKen
your question bitters is a common household

the dead is alive and well at home
The body supposed to be his was ideaI
suppse I
tided as such by fifteen people An im j
pression prevails that the responsibility
for the accident rests upon the dead
engineer Edward Farr There is no
dispute that the signal to g ahead t
was Driven to the West Jersey excur >
sion train and if so the danger signal I
I
must necessarily have been given to
the Reading track by the automatic ar
rangement The theory is that Farr
did not slow up and could not stop in
time when he saw the West Jersey
train approaching I is said that he
had been laid off two weeks not long I
ago for not making good time and it is
supposed he was trying to make up for
this by running at a high rate of speed i

MEXICOS RACE OF PIGMIES
Know By Tradition Their Locality
cality is a Mystery
Somewhere hidden in the heart of
that land of marvels Mexico there is
without doubt a nation of pigmies
Few there are but fierce short of
stature but long of life Science which
in this latter day goes out Into high
ways and hedges and compels all sorts
of curiosities to come in has not been
able yet to put its positive finger on
thoae people But tha Aztec traditions
old before the beginning of history
have said that they existed
There Is echo of the in
Ther story the
early histories of that land full of won
ders Prescott only told of a small
part of the strange things to be found
in Mexico
It was in the belief thait we had the
clew to almost the precise location of
these tiny folks that I started to jcur
ney into the wilds of Mexico So def
nite was the information upon whlh
the expedition was based that I thought
we might go directly to the home of
the dwarfs
I knew there were mountains to
climb and rivers to cress hundreds of
hard miles to travel untold hardships
to face but to find the pigmy Aztec
was a great enough accomplishment to
tempt any scientific man to make all
physical discomforts seem trivial
I i went I invaded the remotest end
most uncivilized districts of the great
k V
i < sg
country to the south Of the men and
customs I have seen many and stud
ied them from the United States bor
I der to the isthmus I have seen strange
peoplesand gathered relics of a bygone
civilization but the race of pigmies
we could not find V
I do not say they dO not exist but
merely that I did not find them They
may still be hidden somewhere among
those mountains where some day some
lucky man will find them and bring
them to light
Ait any rte I have come back to the
haunts of everyday modern people
and the duties of everyday life wiser
and happier than when I started on my
mission V The story of ttose wanderings
in Mexico will be a wonder story to tell
by and by and a rich f memory for old

that we have only about half a dozen

capable and even with them it is a bold

WHOLE REGIMENT OX SKATES
Soldiers of Norway Use Them in
Their Winter Evolutions j I
Norway during a considerable portion 1
of the year Is covered with snow and
j
her winders which in other countries are
of short duration extend to five or six
sx
months and in the most northern parts 1
to a much longer period During this
time it is impossible to leave the beaten
roads for the purpose at least of travel
ing and when fresh snow happens to fall
even the communication by means of 1
them Is Kfnnr arl until tVio aTortjrfnn iQ oV > lo
to be continued by means fo a machine i
I which by being dragged by horses along
j the road restores the former track by
i clearing away the snow in part and flattening I
j I tening and leveling the remainder
I The thinness however of the popula I
tion widely scattered over such an im
I mense extent of territory renders It in i
o
many places impossible to keep the roads I I I
open by these means I was natural I
then that the Norwegian should devise
some mode by which to leave his hut
generally removed from roads and V
gee1y rmoved rods tra
verse the forests in various directions
vaous
j I with sufficient celerity to follow the chase
I has favorite occupation
I For this purpose he devised the skies
I or snow skates which consist of two
thin narrow pieces of fir of unequal
I length the foremost part being pointed
and turned V
tured upward
I The longest which measures about
I seven feet is used on the left foot and V
1 the other which is about two feet shorter
I I on the right The latter is called sander i
from the right foot being used more than
I the left particularly in turning Both i
skates are about three inches in width
and an inch in thickness in the center
where the foot is placed which is firmly 1
bound to the side by loops at the side i
made of willow or the fiber of fir roots I
to which are fastened leather thongs 1
The skies are smeared with tar or pitch
I and the under side is hollowed in the
i center Into a groove to prevent their
I
goove pEv
slipping laterally and to enable the skie j j
j lober or skater to keep a straight course II
The arms of the skielober were a rifle
I to which was attached a broad rfel
strap passing over the shouider and a
short sword He carried with him be I
sides a staff skiestoken seven feet in j I
I length and rather more than an inch in j
I diameter This which was held in his
I right hand was armed at one end with
an iron spike and above it was placed a
I circular piece of wood The use of the
former was to penetrate the frozen snow
I and of the latter to prevent the staff
I sinking in giving thus a firm support
to the bearer
i The skestok or sklestay a i was
I called was likewise as has been before
i observed of considerable use to the skie j I
i lober in enabling him to moderate his
V speed make certain wheels and
certaii preserve I
the necesary balance during the descent
of steep declivities The skielober to the
V skate exercise united that of the ordinary
I chasseurs or light troops of which it
I constituted a part and it performed all
the duties differing from them only in
marching on skates which gave it a very
great superiority The skielobers moved
with singular agility and from the depth
of snow were safe from every pursuit of
cavalry or infantry I
On the other hand they could attack i
the enemys column on march and harass
them incessant on both sides of the
road without incurring any danger to
themselves Cannon shot produced little
effect against them dispersed as they
were at the distance of 200 or 300 paces
and ihtir movorriens were so rapid that
at the very instant you would expect to
see them a second time they had already
disappeared to reappear again in a quarter
whore you were not the least aware O
them The real superiority of the skating
soldiers however was chiefly shown
when the enemy halted after a long
march Whatever precautions might then
be taken they were in constant danger
from troops which had no occasion for
path or road and traversed with indifference
rivers and I
difference marshes lakes river
mountains Even in those parts where
the ice was too feeble to bear the weight
of a man the skielobar glided safely over
Philadelphia by the mere Times rapidity of his motion
POPULARITY OF E SWEET PELV
Fashion In eastern cities has decreed
shall hold first
that the dainty sweet pea shal frt
place in the floral world and now that
the season ha come when It Is in full
t
bloom its delicate beauty adds new charm
to amost every womans toilet In the
ctties where the fragrant bunches are
sold at every odd corner the fad of the
hour shows itself in the many buyers
that come along but in the smaller
towns there has been kindled a keen ri
valry among society women over the
home cultivation of the flower As early
as February the seeds may be planted if
the season is not too severe and ever
since eariy spring there has been sup
pressed excitement among the fair owners
of private gardens as to the outcome of
their sweet peas Speculation as vo the
possible outcome of the precious beds has
ben rife and now that all the plants are
in full flower the pride and delight of a I
lucky possessor of an odd variety are as
genuine as is the satisfaction of the I
happy owner of a rare bit of china Ex
perience says that to be most satisfactory
the sweet pea must ba planted where it I
has neitlieu too much ncr too little sun j I
I is best to err on the side of too little j
warmth and the moisture must be in
like proportion i I
A fTnmo nf Hirht wire around the bed
i will l l keep the vines li place and bring
i them up i straight and tall and constant
plucking of the flowers as soon as they
I 1 mature is the beet possible way to bring
now ones out The dwarf cupid is a rare
specimen pure white and very hard to
I raise and pUe many are the envious glances
at the lucky woman who can boast of
I such a treasure in her collection As
they bloom usually from late in June un
usua1
I I til at least the middle of August they are
ti course the favorite corsage bouquet
just now and there Is such an infinite
just t in their coloring they are an end
less source of pleasure and interest to
those who cultivate them Each year
new numbers are added to the list of
women who find the benefit and relaxa
tion there is in some outdoor interest a
ton antidote for the anxieties and cares
of house pleasures as well as duties and
has
now that the raising of sweet peas
proved to be such a stimulus to friendly
i competition and unflagging zeal It is
comptUon
quite probable that another year will see
almost as many amateur florists a there

I PERNICIOUS LITERATURE
i The evil that comes from pernicious
and vile literature is greater than is
generally realized Blood curdling
stories books that exalt robbery and
piracy and evil zeds df daring are
largely l circulated among the young
where it would not be suspectedand
I particularly in our public schools and
j their fruit is seen in corruption of
j I youth even in the best families The
I antidote to this is the circulation of
good books and the formation of a
better taste for reading Pastors and
teachers and parents should look care
fully after the reading of the young
When such bpoks as the Bonnie Briar
Bush can be had for 5 cents there is
no excuse for reading poor books
What to one of a better habit may
be a silly book may be to another
just what he needs because adapted
to his present intelligence When the
book is selected one should read intel
ligently thoughtfully appropriatlngly
digesting its truth and making it his
own Thus the reading will enter into
and increase ones life Evangelist

Pennsylvania Methodist Do what
Wipa out the s lon business and
save hundreds of thousands of young
men body and soul and prohibit fur
ther continuance of a system which
blights happiness crushes hope and
converts home into worse than a hell
Do what Release this great Christian
government from the license system
which in any form is a menace to good
citizenship and pure religion Do
what Come out from among them
and be separate from them Come
out in theory and in practice I you
are a Christian i is no credit to you
or to your church to politically asso
ciate with a class of men who would
not remain where they are politically
were it not to their interest to do so
I you are not a Christian you are at
least a citizen who loves the state and
the church The rum business is an
enemy to the state the home and the
church
Do what Have prohibition Have

loving to have it so Rum rules

GOD STILL HOLDS HIS PLACE
At the present day you can approach
a truly religious man and face him
with any amount of discouraging sta
tistics You can tel him that fewer
people are attending church You can
point to the mighty power of the press
and say that that power is increasing
ly used for the purposes of evil and
still after you have said your worst
you cannot compel your religious man
rlgous
to believe the worst or to believe that
that mighty agency is to have any
other power than to fulfil the pur
poses of God in the world You can
point to the institutions of religion
You may say Here is a flaw or here
is a defectV you may say that re
ligion is a failure and that life is not
worth living and still the man who
has been introduced to God will only
smile at your words He knows be
cause he knows God that this uni
verse of ours is in spite of its defects
but fulfilling the great the divine will II
of him who was and is and is to be
And the spirit of a great hopefulness
will take possession of the soul of a
religious man just in proportion as he
finds himself in the presence of these
thtng which are dark and d scourg
ing He will confess that so far a
the universalities of life are concerned
nothing is plainer than this that
God the God of love still holds his
universe in every department in the
hollow of his hand that his will is to
be done in earth as in heaven and
that hiskingdom is to come here that
it may come thereFrom a Sermon
by Dr Nehemiah Boynton
LEARN TO LAUOR AXD WAIT
For the lessons of life
They are many and stern
And the hardest to learn
V Is not masterful strife
For a king or a state
I is on yto wait
Youth is eager to start
On the ocean alone
Ere his strength be fullgrown
And though Age from his heart
May of perils Inform
Still he thirsts for the storm
I his courage be high
He may struggle along
And by sorrow grow strong
And the years as they fly
May allot him lifes prize
On this side of the skies
But the many that strive
For the laurels must fail
And full many a sail
At Deaths port shall arrive
That could enter Joys gate
Would Its master but wait

true purposes of his being I seems to
me well to antagonize thus at the start
any such idea as that religion is one of i
the dispensables or that it occupies i
much the same position in our per i

CHEAP RELIGION
I entreat you do not covet a cheap
religion What costs nothing is abso
lutely worth nothing To become a new
man and an heir o glory means more
than singing a card or rising for
singng
prayer or to go into an inquiry meet
ing I means the thorough uprooting
of old sins and the Implanting in you
of a new nature The whole question
of your salvation must be settled be
tween you and your Saviour The in
quiry meeting you need most is an hon
est hour with the loving Jesus No
book no sermon no friend no pastor
can save you Jesus can Whatever he
bids you as he speaks through your
conscience do it The loving Saviour
who has waited for you too long al

obedience is the one straight road to

OUR uaFFICULTTIES
V The difficulties in our daily path were
not intended to stop us to make us
give up or faint or turn back They
were meant solely for us to overcome i
and the power to do it waits only upon
our will When we overcome them we
acquire their strength If ve allow j
them to overcome us they take away I
ours Therefore our mission our des
tiny is to overcome them Seen in this
light the obstacle which seemed for
midable to me yesterday possesses no
terrors today You are nothing but
a thing for me to overcome cries my
will and ifs shout of triumph is but
the forerunner of its victory through

NIEVEE SATISFIES
The reason that he who is striving
for wealth or renown for his own per
sonal good or aggrandizement is never
satisfied is because there is a want In
his nature that is never met and nev
er will be until he opens his purse or j
seeks to bless others That man alone
is truly blessed and happy who seeks
to gain that he may bestow on others
And finally the great lesson taught us
is that God himself only lives and la
bors to save and bless all his creatures
and that his happipess and the perfec I
tion of his purpose will not be attained
until every creature will be saved

STRAY SHOTS AT THE SALOON
License money is blood money
The devil never likes to have a man
read a temperance page
Cowardice is despicable and a moral
coward is the worst of all
Saloonkeepers are recruiting officers
for the army of drunkards
The drunkards wife knows by bitter
experience that wine is a mocker
A good many talk for home rule in
Ireland but vote for saloon rule in
America
More people enter jail through the
saloon doors than in all other ways
combined
Every swing of the saloon door finds
an echo of woe in the heart of some
woman
Nobcdy who sows license party vote
seed can complain if the saloon har
vests his son
Laboring men have just grievances
but they cannot be righted by rum
bought candidates
Heathen parents throw their child
ren to the crocodiles license voters
throw theirs to the saloon
Maine has no breweries or distiller
ies but it has thirty loan and building
associations In active operation
The liquor traffic is today the heaviest
clog upon the progress ad the ceepet dis
grace of the nineteenth century
Why is it that a town when giving a
vnteup of its industries never boasts
of the number of its saloons and the
genial saloonkeeper
The concert halls of Chicago are closing
because they have been refused liquor
licenses Like all sources of sin they can
not thrive without whisky
The devil might have thought out some
more effectual plan than the running of
bar rooms for destroying souls but the
bar room is doing so much for him that
ho has not put any new plan in motion

V ODD FENCES
The present age seems to be one in
which people vie with each other to
devise curious work One might
make a unique and interesting col
lection by gathering views of freaks in
fence building in which nothing should
be so commonplace as a worm
fence The Boston Journal says
Not many miles from New Bedford
is a solid fence with a curiously
curved upper line and here and there
a number painted upon it in white
On examination it proves to be built
of the pew doors from a dismantled
church
The Bath Me Times gives an ac
count of a man attached to the life
saving station at Small Point who has
amassed enough swords of the sword
fish to build a picket fence forty feet
in length
In the ancient town of Newcastle
N H there Is a house whose yard Is
enclosed with a fence constructed of
the pew doors of the old Brattle streets
church of Boston This fence once
felt the jar of the solid cannon ball
that struck the old church full in the
face in the revolutionary days
